MABON RITUAL

By Whitewitch
With inspiration from Ann Moura.

Your altar should be dressed to set the scene

Altar Candles: Wine, brown, or orange-brown in colour. Decorate Altar with a choice of fall leaves & flowers, grapes, berries, vines and acorns. Food: Berry Wine and Nut Bread.

Casting the Circle / Calling the Quarters

North

I call upon Light and Earth at the North to illuminate and strengthen the Circle.

East

I call upon Light and Air at the East to illuminate and enliven the Circle.

South

I call upon Light and Fire at the South to illuminate and Warm the Circle.

West

I call upon Light and Water at the West to illuminate and Cleanse the Circle.

Raise athame/wand in power hand in front of the Altar:

"Oh creatures of Earth, in this sacred space, I bless you in the name of the Lord and Lady.

"I honour Thee, Autumn Queen, and Thy consort, the God of the Harvest. The change of the seasons begins. Once again the seasons change. What has been will be, what will be has been. It is now time to reflect; the Equinox is upon us. Dear Lord and Lady, look upon us in this moment, feel the changes from one season to the next.

"Go now, my Lady, and slumber.

Go now, my Lord, and dream."


Lower wand/athame and cast deosil (East, South, West, North, East) while remaining at the centre; envision blue light of energy shooting from wand/athame from the point to form the Circle boundary.

This is the boundary of the Circle, around me, through Earth & Sky, above me and below me as a sphere is the Circle cast and consecrated to the Lady and the Lord that they may work with and through Their child (state your name). This Circle is charged by the powers of the Ancient Ones! Only love shall enter and leave.

Return to Altar; and ring bell or clap hands 3 times touch point of athame in the salt and Say:

Salt is life and purifying. I bless this salt to be used in this sacred Circle by the Power of the Goddess and the God

Using tip of athame, drop 3 portions of salt into water; stir 3 times with blade and Say:

Let the blessed salt purify this water that it may be blessed to use in this sacred Circle. Through the Power of the Goddess and the God is this water cleansed.

Sprinkle blessed water deosil around the Circle and Say:

I consecrate this Circle by the Lady and the Lord. This Circle is conjured a Circle of Power that is purified and sealed. So Mote It Be!
